Cannot open gnome-control-center

After this update I cannot open gnome-control-center.

It says gnome-control-center: error while loading shared libraries: libnsl.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

When I list my files I don’t have it indeed…

20:32:23 /usr/lib >>> ls -l /usr/lib/ | grep libnsl    
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root root     96432 mai 12 20:18 libnsl-2.33.so
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root        15 ago 19 23:06 libnsl.so -> libnsl.so.3.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root        14 mai 12 20:18 libnsl.so.1 -> libnsl-2.33.so
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root        15 ago 19 23:06 libnsl.so.3 -> libnsl.so.3.0.0
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root root     30544 ago 19 23:06 libnsl.so.3.0.0

Any suggestions?

You either did not reboot your system after update, or you had a partial update, so please run from terminal:
sudo pacman-mirrors -f5 && pamac update

Reboot after that.

There is a typo. It is pacman-mirrors

Seems it needs a rebuild for some reason against libnsl.
